The Early Finisher

Hello! Hello! I wanted to stop in and share with you how I’m keeping my little early finishers busy! My students always have a few options when it comes to what to do once they are finished. They can read from their book tubs, work on something from their cubby that wasn’t finished, or work in their “busy bee journals.”

I had all of the pages sent off to the copy center and made into these cute little journals! It would also work great placed loose leaf into a folder.

I have included several easy to use and kid friendly pages. Each page has a direction box with an example for the students to look at. I have had very few questions on what to do from my students. The only questions I get are asking what a picture is! 🙂

Below are some snap shots from my kiddos’ journals!
